10/10 Exceptional

This was the last of 4 hotels we stayed in on our trip and the best. We were here 3 nights, staff were lovely and very helpful. The room was a comfortable nest, very clean, well appointed, and quiet (on the top floor). We ate in the Grill, Limited menu but food was very good. Bar very chic and cool. Only comment would be for the price it would be nice to have feather duvets.

The receptionist was lovely, very helpful and welcoming. Beautiful room, great facilities, Nespresso machine (an essential for caffeine addicts like me!), strong hans gröher shower, Molton Brown toiletries, big TV, lots of mirrors, effective air conditioning and right in the centre of Leeds. Would definitely stay again.
